SMF has no WORKING shoutbox/chatbox

[kat]

If you don't fancy it, just say so, of course.

But, if I get the mod to you, would you fancy looking at it?

As a stand-alone shoutbox, it's the bollox.

Maybe, if I manage to get hold of Grudge, he'll OK it, if it's updated?

Only if you fancy it, obviously.

Well with a bit of php knowledge and a bit of sql you can create a simple shout out box. But as the first post states that is a work shout out box or maybe integrating your your forum with a portal.

@Kat: If you do get it to me, I'll take a look - but I'll only look to find vulnerabilities and fix them, nothing more.

@Chrisburgin: The first post's author is misinformed. There are multiple working shoutboxes currently available, including integrated into most of the current portals.

Only SMFPacks Shoutbox is worth using stand alone shoutbox but it is not fully working. i was talking about stand alone shoutbox. Only simpleportal has a good looking integrated shoutbox. as far as i know..

And sorry... it is a request... thats why there is a "Please" in first post...

[Arantor]

I beg to differ about whether something is worth using, I don't like SMF Packs' one, and besides I much prefer my own shoutbox which is standalone in nature - it certainly doesn't look like a SimpleDesk plugin to the average user, works seamlessly on all themes, no file edits at all... but I can't distribute it since 1) it requires SimpleDesk, 2) it's built for me and my forum (by me) and 3) it's got various special edits to work perfectly with Aeva Media 2.x.

IncognitoMuse, we are not talking about YOUR OWN SHOUTBOX if u cant distribute it
can u please make a real stand alone shoutbox for SMF ??

[Arantor]

No, I can't, because it's got some special custom code for my site like I said. Besides, I'm not writing mods for SMF, too busy working on the SMF fork these days...

And besides, I still remember the way you insulted me over a mod I wrote, made clear I wasn't supporting but you still asked, repeatedly for help with on arantor.org (the User Menu one)

[!RFAN]

you were so rude thee.. okay anyone else will work on this some day

[Arantor]

How was I rude when I set the rules of "I am not providing support, so please don't ask" and yet you still did? It was rude of you not to respect what I was saying, especially when it was on my site...

Thing is, if you like SMFPacks shoutbox, why are you here asking for another? Go ask its author to update it for you and provide support.

[!RFAN]

i dont know why u r arguing with me?? that shoutbox has no author for development...
if u dont want to work on it then u can just ignore this topic...

[Arantor]

There's no ignore button, unfortunately :/

But there are other shoutboxes out there, I just did a search and found several. Have you tried all of them?

Taken as read, mate.

I'll get it to you.
